Los Lonley Boys from the top 100, and I can't get to the amazon top ten list now for some reason --- uh, maybe something crunky? |

Your guess is less offensive than Hank's. But incorrect. Here is the Amazon thing - the CD I own is on the RIAA chart on the left:

First, it's a list of records, not albums.
Second, while I'd like to say I think you're a closet Joss Stone fan, clearly you own an Ozomatli album.
Third, from the other list, I think you own the Ben Harper / Blind Boys of Alabama CD. Unless you were referring to the "RIAA Free" list (nice touch), in which case I'm betting Neko Case. Because if you don't have that one, you probably should.
And Eva Cassidy is a nice (dead) local artist, so I'll give her a recommendation here, but I'd go with "American Tune" instead of "Songbird." |

Next time I am in Baltimore or you are in Minneapolis, sushi is on me.
I like Ben Harper, and although I have not bought anything by him in a long time, I was intrigued by the collaboration with the Blind Boys of Alabama. It is not awesome, but pretty good.
And, yes, as I have mentioned here before, I am an Ozomatli fan. Although the latest CD (the one on the AAA list) is not so good.

Wilco and Ben Harper/Blind Boys both seem too obvious, and you don't strike me as a Jeff Buckley fan, so I'll go with Rufus Wainwright.
eta: Whoops. Sometimes the seemingly correct answer is actually the correct answer. My inability to recognize this fact explains many things about me.

Yeah, I was too harsh on the latest Ozo. It is not bad, just not as good as earlier efforts in my opinion.

Ditto for me on Ben Harper although I recently pulled out Fight for Your Mind and was pleasantly surprised to rediscover some of the songs.
Ben Harper is a special guest on an earlier Blind Boys recording Higher Ground. It's pleasant enough but certainly not mind blowing.

Ask Hank's wife. I really want to see the Photoshopped solution for that one.

Speaking of Eva Cassidy, I adore her, but apaparently one of my friends did not. I convinced a friend in belgium to buy an Eva Cassidy CD because he likes female vocalists and he just sent it to me in the mail today because he said he didn't care for it and I should find it a better home. Sigh.

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.

If the flower declines, I have one you can borrow. (Well, my dog does, but she'll let you, I'm sure -- seeing as how you and I are internet boyfriend-and-girlfriend and all.) |
